Acclaimed London Production Of Network Headed To Broadway Starring Bryan Cranston

"I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take this anymore!" Now that quote is not from me. It is from the 1977 award winning film Network. Of course you probably knew that didn't you? The film, which won four 1977 Academy Awards, including Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actress, and Best Original Screenplay, has been adapted into a stunning new production by Tony Award winner, and Academy Award nominee Lee Hall (Billy Elliot).

Starring Emmy and Tony Award winner Bryan Cranston (Breaking Bad, All The Way), and directed by Tony Award winner Ivo Van Hove (A View From The Bridge, The Crucible), Network premiered at the National Theatre in London this past Spring to critical acclaim.

The Broadway production, which co-stars Emmy Award winner Tatiana Maslany (Orphan Black) in her Broadway debut, is set to begin previews at the Belasco Theatre on November 10, with opening night scheduled for December 6, and will play a limited engagement of eighteen weeks closing on March 17.

Tickets for the highly anticipated show have been selling thru the roof. Now that doesn't mean you can't get tickets. You may just have to spend a little more to get them. Thankfully the Belasco Theatre is not very big, so there is literally not a bad seat in the house. Get your tickets to see Network on Broadway at the Belasco Theatre. Expect the show to be a big contender at next year's Tony Awards. Until next time theatre fans.
